About the opportunity

Dalhousie University’s School of Biomedical Engineering (SBME) in the Faculties of Medicine and Engineering invites applications for a probationary tenure-track, tenure-track or tenured position as Assistant or Associate Professor and Tier 2 Canada Research Chair (CRC) in Wearable Diagnostic Technologies. This CRC position is designated for those individuals who identify as a woman with a disability or a member of another gender equity-deserving group with a disability.

The CRC Program: The CRC program was established by the Canadian Federal Government with the purpose of attracting outstanding researchers to the Canadian university system. Tier 2 Chairs are intended for exceptional emerging scholars candidates must have been an active researcher in their field for fewer than 10 years at the time of nomination). Applicants who are more than 10 years from having earned their highest degree (and where career breaks exist, such as maternity, parental, or extended sick leave, clinical training, etc.) may have their eligibility for a Tier 2 Chair assessed through the program’s Tier 2 justification process. Please contact the Office of Research Services and see the CRC website () for more information on eligibility.

Position Overview: We are seeking applications from emerging scholars who have a strong record of achievement and innovative research in the development of wearable diagnostic technologies and the automated analysis, management and interpretation of data from wearable devices and sensors. The CRC’s focus will be on innovation in wearable technologies and the application of advanced analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) to the processing of diagnostic data coming from wearable devices. The CRC applicant’s expertise may be in the development of wearable diagnostic technologies for any area of healthcare including musculoskeletal health, orthopaedics, cardiac, neurological, respiratory, hematological or vital signs monitoring. The successful CRC will contribute to and expand the scope of the research and teaching excellence in our school. This includes developing a focused, highly successful and collaborative research program in this field that is complimentary to ongoing research activities within Dalhousie University, and that engages with local, national and international research networks. This also includes graduate teaching in the areas of wearable biomedical devices and advanced biomedical data acquisition, processing and analytics for medical diagnostics, as well as teaching in the Biomedical Engineering certificate program in undergraduate engineering.
